A grown up block is going to Atpegsquiltstudio tomorrow morning (Monday) and that is all of mine done. Thank you to everyone that have sent me a block I love them all. Can't wait to see all the quilts put together.

Update.
All my blocks that I need to send out are completed!
I have not received blocks from AnneMixon, AtPegsQuiltStudio, cuppy, KarenO.
I see that AtPegs and KarenO and Cuppy have posted that they are working on them or have mailed. I am looking forward to getting them! I love getting the squishies!!

Has anyone heard from AnneMixon ? I hope she is okay and are just running late.

Hi Everyone - all blocks from this group are completed. The only one which I have not sent is debfaye a side swap and that will go out on Wednesday. Thank you all for swapping. Can't wait till the next one.

I just received this lovely block from Cuppy, Thank you so much. I really appreciated the exercize sheet she sent along for a bad back. After 2 weeks of very little movement I can finally sit at the computer and sewing machine. Can't stand or walk for very long yet but I keep trying.
I still haven't received blocks from AnneMixon, atpegsquiltstudio, and Sunrise450.

The NEXT Boom

As many of you know, our fearless Boomerang Friendship Swap leader April is stepping back from swaps for the foreseeable future. We’ve been in contact over the last several weeks culminating in a phone call and final decision yesterday. April isn’t leaving the board, (you can see she’s still here finishing up Boom 10!) she’s simply stepping back for now and she’s turned the Boom reins over to me. I’m going to lead Boom 11 in her stead and I hope to do her hard work justice. Boom 10 folks, I want to let you know that I’m not hijacking her program, just running it in her place, with her permission, and that of the Board. I participated in Boom 10 in the Maia group and had a great experience. I knew instantly following April’s announcement here that it would be a shame to let the Booms die. It wasn’t going to happen, not if I could help, so I approached her and here we are. April’s been at this for about 4 years and has her system down to a science. I see no need for changes so we’re not going to mess with it. Sign-ups will begin sometime late next week; please be on the lookout for the post. We’ll have Fast and Slow groups, running 2 months and 4 months respectively. Also, although the last couple of swaps have been only Small groups of 16 or so, I’ll open it up to the option of Large groups as well if there is enough interest. All skill levels are welcome. Sign-ups will run about 3 weeks or so, depending upon interest. (If you have concerns about starting a Boom at this time of year, you might want to consider doing a Slow group to allow yourself plenty of time.) It will take me several days to make sure I’ve got everything in order and then I’ll post the groups and off we’ll go. I do plan to be very active and on top of the day to day goings on. If you have any questions, I’ll often be able to answer them the same day but please allow me 48 hours, especially over the weekends. I want to assure everyone that I’ll do the best I can to make Boom 11 run as seamlessly as possible and to be enjoyable for all. It’s time to start thinking about your fabric choices, as if many of you haven’t for weeks! Be looking for the sign-up post toward the end of next week. As usual, the details will be in there. Thanks everyone! Janice McC

Grandma DI, Would you check your records please? My records show that I mailed you your block on 8/31. I looked through the left over scraps from this swap and found the scraps from making your block. Unfortunatly I wasn't taking pictures of finished blocks then, didn't know how to. I take them now with my iPad, that is the only way I seem to be able to post pictures on this board!
Thank you,
Phyllis
